Disability Services:
The University Libraries are committed to providing access to their collections, resources, and services to all library users, including people with physical and learning disabilities. If you require special assistance, please feel free to contact our library staff. We will make every effort to accommodate your needs.
Parking and Building Access
Visitors displaying an official state-issued disability designation may park in the spaces reserved for those with such permits. Please note that these permits do not allow parking in the UNC Disability Permit parking spots.
Biology/Chemistry Library
The entrance to the library is wheelchair accessible.
Geological Sciences Library
A ramp for wheelchairs is located at the south door of Mitchell Hall on the street level. This ramp is accessible from the Columbia Street side (west side) of the building and provides access to the first floor. There is also a ramp at the ground level, behind Mitchell Hall, where Mitchell Hall and Wilson Hall buildings connect at a breezeway stairwell. This ramp provides access to the ground floor, where an elevator is located. The library is located on the first floor on the north end of Mitchell Hall, near the elevator.
Math/Physics Library
Disability access is available from the 1st floor of the building. To access this entrance, turn into Peabody parking lot from Cameron Dr. Once in the parking lot, you will find disability parking right beneath the overhead walkway near the middle of the Phillips building. Upon entering the building, turn left and go to the end of the hall. The building's elevator will be on your left. The library is on the third floor of Phillips Hall. Exit the elevator on the third floor, turn right, and right again and the library is the first door on the right.
